Too funny! I just installed both of the other ideas and then re-dowloaded
it... and saw the version was updated.
Thanks for a great extension and
great response!
Thank you, too, for the others who answered.
In case
someone didn't know what I meant, there's an extension for the browser Firefox
that shows the SFX (or other resolver) link with the record. It works in
Connotea, too. It's pretty cool.
